It is a historic settlement and an outstanding example of the 19th and early 20th-century [[model village|"company towns"]] built in Europe and North America by enlightened industrialists to meet the workers' needs. The site is still intact and is partly used for industrial purposes, although changing economic and social conditions now threaten its survival.<ref>[https://whc.unesco.org/archive/periodicreporting/EUR/cycle01/section2/730-summary.pdf UNESCO Reference 730]</ref> Since 1995 it has been on [[UNESCO]]'s list of [[World Heritage Sites]].
